</abstract>
<abstract><p>Bats have been identified as a natural reservoir for an increasing number of emerging zoonotic viruses, including henipaviruses and variants of rabies viruses. Recently, we and another group independently identified several horseshoe bat species (genus <italic>Rhinolophus</italic>
) as the reservoir host for a large number of viruses that have a close genetic relationship with the coronavirus associated with severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS). Our current research focused on the identification of the reservoir species for the progenitor virus of the SARS coronaviruses responsible for outbreaks during 2002–2003 and 2003–2004. In addition to SARS-like coronaviruses, many other novel bat coronaviruses, which belong to groups 1 and 2 of the 3 existing coronavirus groups, have been detected by PCR. The discovery of bat SARS-like coronaviruses and the great genetic diversity of coronaviruses in bats have shed new light on the origin and transmission of SARS coronaviruses.</p>

<body><p>Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) represents the 21st century's first pandemic of a transmissible disease with a previously unknown cause. The pandemic started in November 2002 and was brought under control in July 2003, after it had spread to 33 countries on 5 continents, resulting in >8,000 infections and >700 deaths (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R1"><italic>1</italic>
</xref>
). The outbreaks were caused by a newly emerged coronavirus, now known as the SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV).</p>
<p>In late 2003 and early 2004, sporadic outbreaks were reported in the region of the People's Republic of China where the 2002–2003 outbreaks originated (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R2"><italic>2</italic>
</xref>
). However, molecular epidemiologic studies showed that the viruses responsible for the 2003–2004 outbreaks were not the same as those isolated during the 2002–2003 outbreaks (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R3"><italic>3</italic>
</xref>
). These findings indicate independent species-crossing events. They also indicate that a SARS epidemic may recur in the future and that SARS-like coronaviruses (SARS-like–CoVs) that originate from different reservoir host populations may lead to epidemics at different times or in different regions, depending on the distribution of the reservoirs and transmitting hosts. The recent discovery of a group of diverse SARS-like–CoVs in bats supports the possibility of these events and further highlights the need to understand reservoir distribution and transmission to prevent future outbreaks.</p>
<sec><title>Animal Origin of SARS Coronaviruses</title>
<p>Because of the sudden and unpredictable nature of the SARS outbreaks that started in November 2002 in southern People's Republic of China, structured and reliable epidemiologic studies to conclusively trace the origin of SARS-CoV were not conducted. However, accumulated studies from different groups, which used a variety of approaches, indicated an animal origin on the basis of the following findings. 1) Genome sequencing indicated that SARS-CoV is a new virus with no genetic relatedness to any known human coronaviruses (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R4"><italic>4</italic>
</xref>
<italic>,</italic>
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R5"><italic>5</italic>
</xref>
). 2) Retrospective serologic studies found no evidence of seroprevalence to SARS-CoV or related viruses in the human population (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R6"><italic>6</italic>
</xref>
). 3) Serologic surveys among market traders during the 2002–2003 outbreaks showed that antibodies against SARS-CoV or related viruses were present at a higher ratio in animal traders than control populations (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R7"><italic>7</italic>
</xref>
<italic>–</italic>
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R9"><italic>9</italic>
</xref>
). 4) Epidemiologic studies indicated that early case-patients were more likely than later case-patients to report living near a produce market but not near a farm, and almost half of them were food handlers with probable animal contact (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R7"><italic>7</italic>
</xref>
). 5) SARS-CoVs isolated from animals in markets were almost identical to human isolates (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R9"><italic>9</italic>
</xref>
). 6) Molecular epidemiologic analyses indicated that human SARS-CoV isolates could be divided into 3 groups from the early, middle, and late phases of the outbreaks and that early-phase isolates were more closely related to the animal isolates (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R10"><italic>10</italic>
</xref>
). 7) Human SARS-CoVs isolates from the 2003–2004 outbreaks had higher sequence identity to animal isolates of the same period than to human isolates from the 2002–2003 outbreaks (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R3"><italic>3</italic>
</xref>
).</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Susceptible Animals in Markets and Laboratories</title>
<p>The first evidence of SARS-CoV infection in animals came from a study conducted in a live animal market in early 2003 (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R9"><italic>9</italic>
</xref>
). From the 25 animals sampled, viruses closely related to SARS-CoV were detected in 3 masked palm civets (Paguma larvata) and 1 raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides). In addition, neutralizing antibodies against SARS-CoV were detected in 2 Chinese ferret badgers (Melogale moschata). This initial study indicated that at least 3 different animal species in the Shenzhen market were infected by coronaviruses that are closely related to SARS-CoV.</p>
<p>Given the vast number of live animals being traded in animal markets in southern People's Republic of China, knowing which other animals are also susceptible to these viruses is crucial. Unfortunately, for a variety of reasons no systematic studies were conducted on traded animals during the outbreak period. Experimental infection of different animals therefore became a component of the SARS-CoV investigation.</p>
<p>Currently, >10 mammalian species have been proven to be susceptible to infection by SARS-CoV or related viruses (<xref ref-type="table" rid="T1">Table 1</xref>
). Rats were also implicated as potentially susceptible animals that may have played a role in the transmission and spread of SARS-CoV in the well-publicized SARS outbreaks in the Amoy Gardens apartment block in Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, People's Republic of China (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R23"><italic>23</italic>
</xref>
). In Guangdong in 2004, the first human with a confirmed case of SARS was reported to have had no contact with any animals except rats (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R2"><italic>2</italic>
</xref>
). Experimentally, we have obtained serologic evidence that SARS-CoV replicates asymptomatically in rats (B.T. Eaton et al., unpub. data). Further studies are needed to clarify the potential role of rats in the transmission of SARS-CoV. Studies by 2 independent groups suggested that avian species were not susceptible to SARS-CoV infection and that, hence, domestic poultry were unlikely to be the reservoir or associated with the dissemination of SARS-CoV in the animal markets of southern People's Republic of China (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R22"><italic>22</italic>

<sec><title>Role of Masked Palm Civets</title>
<p>Although in 1 live animal market, 3 species were found to be infected by viruses related to SARS-CoV (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R9"><italic>9</italic>
</xref>
), all subsequent studies have focused mainly on palm civets, possibly because the rate of detection was higher in civets or because the number of civets traded in southern People's Republic of China exceeds that of other wildlife groups.</p>
<p>The isolation of closely related SARS-CoV in civets during the 2002–2003 and 2003–2004 outbreaks and the close match of virus sequences between the human and civet isolates from each outbreak (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R3"><italic>3</italic>

<italic>,</italic>
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R25"><italic>25</italic>
</xref>
) strongly suggest that civets are a direct source of human infection. However, these studies did not clarify whether animals other than civets were involved in transmission of SARS-CoV to humans or whether civets were an intermediate host or the natural reservoir host of SARS-CoVs.</p>
<p>During the 2002–2003 outbreaks, none of the animal traders surveyed in the markets, who supposedly had very close contact with live civets, displayed SARS symptoms (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R7"><italic>7</italic>
</xref>
<italic>–</italic>
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R9"><italic>9</italic>
</xref>
). During the 2003–2004 outbreaks, at least 1 human SARS patient had had no contact with civets (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R2"><italic>2</italic>
</xref>
). These observations seem to indicate that <underline>></underline>
1 other animal species may play a role in transmission of SARS-CoV to humans.</p>
<p>Most, if not all, civets traded in the markets are not truly wildlife animals; rather, they are farmed animals. Civet farming is relatively new in People's Republic of China and has rapidly expanded during the past 15 years or so. Tu et al. conducted the first comparative study of market and farmed civets (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R26"><italic>26</italic>
</xref>
). Serologic testing was performed on 103 serum samples taken from civets in an animal market in Guangdong and several civet farms in different regions of People's Republic of China in June 2003 and January 2004. No significant level of SARS-CoV antibody was detected in any of the 75 samples taken from 6 farms in 3 provinces. In contrast, of the 18 samples taken from an animal market in Guangdong Province in January 2004, 14 (79%) had neutralizing antibodies to SARS-CoV.</p>
<p>In a parallel study conducted between January and September 2004 (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R27"><italic>27</italic>
</xref>
), molecular analysis was used to investigate the distribution of SARS-CoV in palm civets in markets and on farms. PCR analysis of samples from 91 palm civets and 15 raccoon dogs in 1 animal market and 1,107 civets from 25 farms in 12 provinces showed positive results for all animals from the market and negative results for all animals from the farms. Similar results were obtained in wild-trapped civets in Hong Kong; none of the 21 wild civets sampled had positive antibody or PCR results for SARS-CoV (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R28"><italic>28</italic>
</xref>
).</p>
<p>Although not universally true, natural reservoir hosts tend to have coevolved with their viruses and usually do not display clinical signs of infection (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R29"><italic>29</italic>
</xref>
). However, when palm civets were experimentally infected with 2 strains of human SARS-CoV, all developed clinical signs of fever, lethargy, and loss of aggressiveness (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R11"><italic>11</italic>
</xref>
).</p>
<p>Civits' high susceptibility to SARS-CoV infection and wide presence in markets and restaurants strongly indicates an important role for civets in the 2002–2003 and 2003–2004 SARS outbreaks. However, the lack of widespread infection in wild or farmed palm civets makes them unlikely to have been the natural reservoir host.</p>

<sec><title>SARS-like Coronaviruses in Bats</title>
<p>The presence of SARS-like–CoVs in different species of horseshoe bats in the genus Rhinolophus has recently been reported. We found, in a study of horseshoe bat species in different regions of mainland People's Republic of China in 2004 (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R30"><italic>30</italic>
</xref>
), that each of the 4 species surveyed had evidence of infection by a SARS-like–CoV: 2 species (R. pearsoni and R. macrotis) had positive results by both serologic and PCR tests, and 2 (R. pussilus and R. ferrumequinum) had positive results by either serologic or PCR tests, respectively. Bats with positive results were detected in the provinces of Hubei and Guangxi, which are >1,000 km apart. A group in Hong Kong (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R31"><italic>31</italic>
</xref>
) found that, when analyzed by PCR, 23 (39%) of 59 anal swabs of wild Chinese horseshoe bats (R. sinicus) contained genetic material closely related to SARS-CoV. They also found that as many as 84% of the horseshoe bats examined contained antibodies to a recombinant N protein of SARS-CoV. A previous study indicated a certain level of antigenic cross-reactivity between SARS-CoV and some group 1 coronaviruses (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R6"><italic>6</italic>
</xref>
) and that several group 1 coronaviruses had recently been found in bats. Therefore, the actual seropositive proportion of R. sinicus might be <84%. Nevertheless, the relatively high seroprevalence and wide distribution of seropositive bats is consistent with the serologic pattern expected from a pathogen's natural reservoir host (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R29"><italic>29</italic>
</xref>
).</p>
<p>Genome sequencing showed that the genome organization of all bat SARS-like–CoVs is almost identical to that of the SARS-CoVs isolated from humans or civets. They shared an overall sequence identity of 88% to 92%. The most variable regions were located in the 5´ end of the S gene, which codes for the S1 domain responsible for receptor binding, and in open reading frame 10 (ORF10 or ORF8, depending on the nomenclature used) region immediately upstream from the N gene (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">Figure</xref>
, panel A, region b), which is known to be also prone to deletions of various sizes (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R3"><italic>3</italic>
</xref>
<italic>,</italic>
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R9"><italic>9</italic>
</xref>
). Most human SARS-CoVs isolated during the late phase of the 2002–2003 outbreaks have a 29-nt deletion in this region; this deletion is absent in the civet isolates or human isolates from the early phase of the outbreaks (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R3"><italic>3</italic>
</xref>
<italic>,</italic>
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R9"><italic>9</italic>
</xref>
). The bat viruses also lack the 29-nt deletion, indicating that SARS-CoVs and SARS-like–CoVs share a common ancestor.</p>

<graphic xlink:href="06-0401-F"></graphic>
</fig>
<p>Furthermore, sequence analyses indicated the existence of a much greater genetic diversity of SARS-like–CoVs in bats than of SARS-CoVs in civets or humans, which supports the notion that SARS-CoV is a member of this novel coronavirus group and that bats are a natural reservoir for it. The overall genome sequence identities between the human/civit SARS-CoVs and the bat viruses Rp3 (isolated from R. pearsoni) and HKU3–1 (isolated from R. sinicus) were 92% and 88%, respectively. The sequence identity between the bat isolates Rp3 and HKU3–1 is 89%, which indicates that the genetic divergence among the bat isolates is as great as the divergence between each of the bat viruses and the human/civet isolates. In addition, phylogenetic trees based on different protein sequences display different tree topologies, as shown in the <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">Figure</xref>
(panel B), which indicates the existence of multiple evolutionary pathways for different regions of the genome.</p>
<sec><title>Diversity of Coronaviruses in Bats</title>
<p>The discovery of SARS-CoV has boosted the search for novel coronaviruses of human and animal origin. Bats have been chosen as the main target because of their species diversity, large population size, broad geographic distribution, ability for long-distance migration, and habit of roosting in large groups. In addition to the SARS-like–CoVs described above, many other coronaviruses have been detected by PCR among diverse bat populations in Hong Kong (<xref ref-type="table" rid="T2">Table 2</xref>

<p>Poon et al. (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R28"><italic>28</italic>

From 162 swab samples collected from 12 bat species, they detected a novel group 1 coronavirus by sequencing of PCR products from the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) gene. The same virus or viruses of the same genetic lineage were found in 3 Miniopterus species (M. pusillus, M. magnater, and M. schreibersii).

Four were in group 1, derived from bat species M. magnater, M. pusillus, Myotis ricketti, and R. sinicus; the other 2 were in group 2, from bat species Pipistrellus abramus and Tylonycteris pachypus. To accommodate the newly discovered genetic diversity of group 2 coronaviruses, the authors proposed the following subdivisions: group 2a (coronaviruses existing before the discovery of SARS-CoV), group 2b (SARS-CoV and SARS-like–CoVs), and group 2c (novel bat coronaviruses discovered in this study). Attempts to isolate virus in VeroE6, MRC-5, LLC-Mk2, FRhK-4, Huh-7.5, and HRT-18 were unsuccessful.</p>
<p>In another extensive study conducted in mainland People's Republic of China during November 2004–March 2006, Tang et al. (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R33"><italic>33</italic>

) collected samples from 985 bats: 35 species in 14 genera and 3 families at 82 different sites in 15 provinces. A total of 64 (6.5%) bats had positive results from a PCR directed to a highly conserved 440-bp RdRp region. Among the 64 PCR-positive products sequenced, only 3 (all from the genus Rhinolophus) were clustered with known bat SARS-like–CoVs (or group 2b), 40 belonged to group 1, and the remaining 22 formed a separate cluster in group 2, most likely clustering with the group 2c viruses reported by Woo et al.

<p>In addition to the diversity of coronaviruses in bats, 3 more observations can be drawn from these studies. First, none of the bat coronaviruses discovered so far belonged to group 3. Second, with very few exceptions, most bat coronaviruses seem to be species-specific; i.e., different bat species from a similar location harbor different coronaviruses, whereas the same bat species from different geographic locations carry coronaviruses of the same genetic lineage (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R32"><italic>32</italic>

<sec><title>Cross-species Transmission</title>
<p>Emergence of zoonotic viruses from a wildlife reservoir requires 4 events: 1) interspecies contact, 2) cross-species virus transmission (i.e., spillover), 3) sustained transmission, and 4) virus adaptation within the spillover species (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R34"><italic>34</italic>
</xref>
). These 4 transition events occurred during the SARS outbreaks and contributed to the rapid spread of the disease around the world.</p>
<p>The role of civets in directly transmitting SARS-CoV to humans has been well established. The most convincing case was the infection of a waitress and a customer in a restaurant where SARS-CoV–positive civets were housed in cages (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R25"><italic>25</italic>

). Two key questions remain: What is the natural reservoir host for the outbreak SARS-CoV strains, and how were the viruses transmitted to civets or other intermediate hosts? Although not conclusive, the data obtained so far strongly suggest that bats (horseshoe bats in particular) are most likely the reservoir host of SARS-CoV. As indicated above, bat coronaviruses seem to be species-specific and SARS-like–CoVs discovered so far are exclusively associated with horseshoe bats. We hope that continued field study will eventually identify the direct progenitor of SARS-CoV among the 69 different known horseshoe species. The facts that the cross-species transmission of SARS-CoV seems to be a relatively rare event and that legal and illegal trading of wildlife animals between People's Republic of China and other countries occurs raise the possibility that the natural reservoir species may not be native to People's Republic of China. Thus, we should expand our search into regions other than Hong Kong and mainland People's Republic of China. Another approach to search for the natural reservoir of SARS-CoV is to conduct infection experiments in different bat species. If we assume that the progenitor viruses come from bats, chances are high that the human/civet SARS-CoVs are still capable of infecting the original reservoir species.</p>
<p>Without knowing the natural reservoir of SARS-CoV, predicting the exact mechanism of transmission from reservoir host to intermediate host is difficult. However, the fecal-oral route represents the main mode of transmission among animals. Although mixing of live reservoir hosts (e.g., bats) and intermediate hosts (e.g., civets) would be an efficient means of transmission, the main source of cross-species transmission in the animal trading chain (including warehouses, transportation vehicles, markets) may come from contaminated feces, urine, blood, or aerosols. This may also be true for civet-to-human transmission. As shown in the case of the infected restaurant customer in 2004, the customer had no direct contact with civets and was sitting at a table ≈5 m from the civet cages (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R25"><italic>25</italic>
</xref>
).</p>
<p>Although at this stage we cannot rule out the possibility of direct transmission from the natural reservoir host to humans, molecular epidemiologic studies (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R2"><italic>2</italic>
</xref>
<italic>,</italic>
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R10"><italic>10</italic>
</xref>
) and studies of the receptor-S protein interaction (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R35"><italic>35</italic>
</xref>
) indicate that the progenitor viruses are unlikely to be able to infect humans and that a rapid viral evolution in an intermediate host (such as civets) seems to be necessary to adapt the virus for human infection. Ability to efficiently use the receptor molecules (ACE2 for human and civet) seems to be a major limiting factor for animal-to-human and human-to-human transmission (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R35"><italic>35</italic>
</xref>
). This also explains why the SARS-CoV was able to cause the human pandemic but the closely related bat SARS-like–CoVs were not. For the SARS-like–CoVs to infect humans, substantial genetic changes in the S1 receptor-binding domain will be necessary. These changes may be achieved in 1 of 2 possible ways. They could be achieved by genetic recombination, as coronaviruses are known to be able to recombine. For example, bat SARS-like–CoVs and another yet unknown coronavirus could coinfect an intermediate host, and the bat viruses would gain the ACE2 binding site in the S1 domain by recombination. The alternative is continuous evolution independent of recombination. Coronaviruses in bats could have a spectrum sufficiently diverse to encompass the progenitor virus for SARS-CoVs. The progenitor virus's ability to bind human ACE2 may be acquired or improved by adaptation (i.e., point mutations) in <underline>></underline>
1 intermediate host before it could efficiently infect humans. The existence of at least 3 discontinuous highly variable genomic regions between SARS-CoV and SARS-like–CoV indicates that the second mechanism is more likely.</p>
<p>In conclusion, the discovery of bat SARS-like–CoVs and the great genetic diversity of coronaviruses in bats have shed new light on the origin and transmission of SARS-CoV. Although the exact natural reservoir host for the progenitor virus of SARS-CoV is still unknown, we believe that a continued search in different bat populations in People's Republic of China and neighboring countries, combined with experimental infection of different bat species with SARS-CoV, will eventually identify the native reservoir species. A positive outcome of these investigations will greatly enhance our understanding of spillover mechanisms, which will in turn facilitate development and implementation of effective prevention strategies. The discovery of SARS-like–CoVs in bats highlights the increasingly recognized importance of bats as reservoirs of emerging viruses (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R36"><italic>36</italic>
</xref>
). Moreover, the recent emergence of SARS-CoVs and other bat-associated viruses such as henipaviruses (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R37"><italic>37</italic>
</xref>
<italic>,</italic>
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R38"><italic>38</italic>

), Menangle, and Tioman viruses (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R36"><italic>36</italic>
</xref>
), and variants of rabies viruses and bat lyssaviruses (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R38"><italic>38</italic>
</xref>
<italic>,</italic>
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R39"><italic>39</italic>
</xref>
) also supports the contention that viruses, especially RNA viruses, possess more risk than other pathogens for disease emergence in human and domestic mammals because of their higher mutation rates (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="R40"><italic>40</italic>
